Welcome to the Irrlicht Engine

The Irrlicht Engine is an open source high performance realtime 3D engine written in C++. It is completely cross-platform, using D3D, OpenGL and its own software renderers, and has all of the state-of-the-art features which can be found in commercial 3d engines.
We've got a huge active community, and there are lots of projects in development that use the engine. You can find enhancements for Irrlicht all over the web, like alternative terrain renderers, portal renderers, exporters, world layers, tutorials, editors, language bindings for java, perl, ruby, basic, python, lua, and so on. And best of all: It's completely free.

An early, playable version of a new game from Jorge Rosa. Pure entertainment for family and friends at any age. Comes with retro-graphic platform style and easy 3-button controls.

– Controls have just 3 main keys: UP + DOWN + SHOOT.
– No lives, no countdown timers, no stress!
– Audios are soft, no shoot, no fire, no agressive sounds, enemies don’t die, no Zombies, no blood.
– Download is around 35Mb files size.
– No install is required (just unzip).
– You may change some settings in the included text file “settings.txt”.
– NOTE: This is an early version. The game still needs to be sharpened. Bugs may occur, etc, etc… “PIRATES! The rescue…” is in constant improvement, so please keep checking for updates!

Last week SourceForge, which we use for hosting, was having connectivity issues. This caused the Irrlicht homepage and forum to work badly. Over the last days most things started working again – except the forum continues to be broken. Old posts can be read but everything else is currently not working. We try to figure out what is going on. In the meantime if you have urgent questions you can discuss them on IRC (server: irc.freenode.net channel: #irrlicht).

It’s an arcade shooter game, made with the Irrlicht Engine. You fly with a spaceship through procedurally generated caves and fight against evil demons using magic colors. There is a campaign of 30 levels and 6 boss monsters. It also comes with a level editor, so you can create your own caves and missions.

The Irrlicht homepage got hacked last weekend. A backdoor was installed in our wordpress installation and invisible spam-links got added all over the place. This was possible as we hadn’t updated our WordPress installation for too long. Most things are now back in place. But we will no longer allow comments on posts (we have the forum for that) and we no longer support IRC chatting over the homepage (please use IRC clients for that instead).

The attackers likely got access to the database which is also used for the forums. So please update your forum password.
